No, but you could 3d print something if you wanted to, but the reason why the chain drops to the outside during shifting is usually due to the high limit screw too far out and allowing the FD to move too far to the outside. You should only have a maximum of 0.5-1mm of gap between the chain and the outer cage plate when on the big small combination. When the gap is too big, the chain may wedge into the gap just by the momentum of shifting or the inner cage plate pushing the chain over.
You could also use a bash guard to keep the chain from falling to the outside but only if you use very thin spacers. I have to space my bash guard wider than the width of the chain to prevent chain rub because I have very short chainstay which makes sharp chain angles.
